| Beschrijving voorzijde | Stylised Celtic head facing left, rendered in the characteristically abstract La Tène artistic tradition. The effigy features a prominent, exaggerated nose and a boldly modelled facial profile. The hair is depicted by two distinctive J-shaped curling locks falling behind and before the head, with additional striated tresses radiating from the crown. The helmet or hair arrangement above the head is suggested by layered, leaf-like relief elements. The overall composition fills the irregular flan with confident, if schematic, Celtic artistry. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Atrebates arrived in southern Britain from Gaul sometime in the late second or early first century BC, likely under pressure from tribal conflicts on the continent, and established themselves across what is now Hampshire, Berkshire, and West Sussex. The "Basingstoke" grouping in ABC classification refers to a find-spot concentration rather than a mint location — these coins turn up repeatedly in the Basingstoke area, suggesting either a local production center or a redistribution node for tribal exchange.
ABC 845 is among the smaller silver fractions of Atrebatic coinage, struck at a weight that implies deliberate subdivision within a broader denominational system tied to the Gaulish stater tradition.
